Focus on Tailing Skills First for Judgement

Focus on Tailing Skills First

In order to unlock new skills for Yagami requires SP points which can be earned during the game doing things like solving cases, playing in arcades, beating up thugs, and even taking pictures of cats. To find out if you have enough SP points to unlock a new skill you simply need to check Yagami's phone periodically to see if you have received a notification with a number. The numbers next to the skill categories tell you how many skills you can currently afford.

There are three different categories of skills you can unlock in Judgement, these are Ability, Battle, and Special. Abilitiy skills raise Yagami's base stats like health and how much alcohol he can drink. Battle skills unlock new moves for Yagami to use in fights. Special skills cover everything else from lockpicking to tailing.

When it comes to which skills you should get first it is recommended that you resist the temptation to get on the Battle skills and instead focus on the skills under the Special category such as Silent Destroyer, Invisible Man, and Target Locked as they will help make lengthy tailing investigations considerably easier. Another useful skill you should consider getting as soon as possible is also under the Special category, and it is the Detective's Hunch skill which will make your controller vibrate whenever you hover over a clue when searching a crime scene.
